Build error after upgrade Azure SDK from 2.4 to 2.6
I just upgraded my web role project (and solution) from Azure SDK 2.4 to Azure SDK 2.6 using the upgrade functionality under project properties > application.
When I am building my application, everything works well but when I try to run it (and start up the Azure emulator and such) it gives the following error when I click "NO" if I want to proceeed with build errors:
unable to get setting value Parameter name: profileName
See build output: 
Nothing more. When I open my output I can not find anything related to this. It looks like the build is done successfully.
If I click "YES" VS serves a popup with this message:
Failed to debug the Microsoft Azure Cloud Service project. The output directory "D:\path\to\folder\src\project\csx\O" does not exist.
Maybe it has something to do with the emulator?
Can some one help? Much appreciated!
We also encountered this issue.
It appears that even if the Service Configuration you've selected in the Run/Debug settings is say, Dev.Local - you need to have a service configuration called ServiceConfiguration.Local.cscfg or you'll encounter this precise error.
At any case, once we created a cscfg called ServiceConfiguration.Local.cscfg this problem ceased, even though we were not referencing it.
